Mark Sanchez seen bloody, wounded in surveillance video after stabbing

(NewsNation) — Former NFL quarterback Mark Sanchez was seen bloody and wounded in new surveillance video obtained by TMZ.

Sanchez received a felony charge for allegedly attacking a 69-year-old truck driver in downtown Indianapolis last weekend.

According to the chief prosecutor, the attack was captured by multiple surveillance cameras. In the footage obtained by TMZ, Sanchez is seen to be affected in some capacity, ostensibly intoxicated, which is one of the charges.

Sanchez, a former NFL quarterback, allegedly attacked Perry Tole, 69, who told police that Sanchez appeared to be intoxicated and tried getting into his truck. When Sanchez wouldn’t back down, Tole pepper-sprayed him and stabbed him in what he says was self-defense. Both Sanchez and the victim were hospitalized.

The former New York Jets quarterback was seen on surveillance video at 12:05 a.m. Oct. 4. During the 25 minutes of video, he is seen walking, seemingly erratically, for several minutes and, at times, stumbles around.

There is no footage of the alleged attack, but Sanchez is seen having an interaction with a man after leaning against a wall, before reentering an alley where Tole's truck was parked..

Sanchez decides to start going for a jog in the alley before pausing at the dumpster. Again, he jogs toward Tole's truck. The truck is parked out of view of the camera, so we don't see what happens next. But police say this is the time, 12:25 a.m. until 12:30 a.m., that Sanchez pulled Tole out of his truck and began fighting.

At 12:30 a.m., Sanchez is then seen running out of the alley and again, taking a right turn onto the sidewalk with blood stained on his shirt. Sanchez's hand went up to his chest as he struggled to move easily. Seven minutes after that, the Indianapolis police and firefighters converged on the scene and closed it off to the public. Tole was wheeled out on a gurney at 12:47 a.m., and Sanchez was also taken to a hospital.

"He is out of his head, there is just no question," TMZ founder Harvey Levin told "Banfield."

"When you watch this, he is wandering aimlessly after midnight. He goes back and forth in areas. He runs at times, but there's one point, actually, where he leans against a wall, and he seems to fall asleep for two minutes," he said.

Levin could not confirm what state of mind Sanchez was in, whether it was alcohol-induced or otherwise, "but it was something."

Sanchez was hit with a civil lawsuit Monday after he was criminally charged with one count of felony battery resulting in a serious, violent injury. The driver suffered a “severe laceration to the side of his face, penetrating all the way through his left cheek,” per court documents.

The former Southern California quarterback was a high-profile NFL analyst for Fox Sports. Despite the possibility of jail, Levin does not believe a guilty verdict would put a definite end to his media career.

"As clear as it seems in the moment, it's just not the way it ends up in reality, so I don't know," he told NewsNation.
